Loddon: School house converted into five-bed home for sale

The Old School House in Claxton, near Loddon, is for sale with Minors & Brady and boasts unrivalled views over open farmland as well as the character and charm you would expect from a unique period conversion.

Great care has been taken to preserve the building’s original character, which dates back to 1847 and features high ceilings and an impressive flint exterior, as well as more contemporary and minimalist interiors and an annexe.

Entered at the rear of the property is an entrance hall, which leads to the annexe on the right and the main living space on the left.

The annexe could easily be used as a holiday let, should new owners want to, and includes a mezzanine floor over the bedroom and a fully-functioning kitchen and bathroom – along with beautiful exposed beams and stunning high ceilings.

On the opposite side of the hall is an open-plan kitchen with an island in the centre and impressive feature lighting, which is very much the hub of the home, before leading on to a study and sitting room. There is also another family room.
